Book excerpt: Excerpt from The St. Mary's Muse, Vol. 23: December, 1918-May, 1919 But after ten years of teaching in public and private schools I have come to have two firm convictions about my profession. One is that there is no satisfaction to be compared with the pleasure of teaching the so-called grammar school grades. The other is that unless a school - pr a teacher - is constrained first of all by the love of Christ, a love that is a compelling and overwhelming foundation and end of knowledge, that school or teacher has very little excuse for being. Twenty - five years ago a group of us stood by the West Rock House one spring morning and prophesied each others futures and pro tested each against her assigned fate. I liked to study and I have never known women whom I loved and honored more than those who taught us at St. Mary's at that time - but my soul was filled with wrath when I was set down to be a teacher. I said nothing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The St. Mary's Muse, Vol. 16: June, 1911 As the third point Bishop Reese spoke of the inspiration of a great and supreme affection, that love is the greatest motive in the world, that it draws out unselfish devotion. The love of Jesus does that; it is the motive power. He emphasized this in telling of service to others as being inspired by love, and gave the story of the wounded soldier of Napoleon who told the surgeon probing for the bullet, Doctor, probe a little deeper and you'll find the Emperor. That was a lesson of devotion. He quoted also the remark of Napoleon, I'll be forgotten, but this Jesus Christ is strong now after two thousand years. He told also of the devotion of the soldiers in the Southern army to Uncle Bob, General Lee. He declared we should look on life as a great privilege and give thanks for it; that gratitude is one of the most beautiful of human flowers, one of the last to come, that gratitude is the sign of a noble life. In conclusion, he said that these things that had been said were not pious plati tudes, but leading motive powers in life, supreme ideals, motives and love for a leader, his closing words being, May God bless each and all of you, and may you feel His love for you and give it back to Him in devotion. Realize the dignity of your lives, humble dignity, to enable your lives to contribute to service as He gives you opportunity. The alms were then taken up for the use 'of the Bishop of Georgia in his work, after which, with Bishop Reese as the celebrant, there took place the celebration of the Holy Communion. At the close of the service the student body passed from the church, the recessional hymn being, 0 Mother Dear, Jerusalem, When Shall I Come to Thee? At the 5 o'clock service the Bishop gave another helpful and inspiring message, suggested by the text, Be ye also ready, with the leading thoughts that this world is beautiful, full of beautiful opportunities for service, but that to use them we must be ready, we must be prepared; that our youth, our school days, are days of preparation for greater opportunities.

Book Battling Nell

Download or read book Battling Nell written by Alexander S. Leidholdt and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2009-11 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A longtime columnist for the Raleigh News and Observer, Cornelia Battle Lewis earned a national reputation in the 1920s and 1930s for her courageous advocacy on behalf of women's rights, African Americans, children, and labor unions. Late in her life, however, after fighting mental illness, Lewis reversed many of her stances and railed against the liberalism she had spent her life advancing. In Battling Nell, Alexander S. Leidholdt tells the compelling and ultimately tragic life story of this groundbreaking journalist against the backdrop of the turbulent post-Reconstruction Jim Crow South and speculates about the cause of her extraordinary transformation. The daughter of North Carolina's most prominent public health official, Lewis grew up in Raleigh, but her experiences at Smith College in Massachusetts, and later in France during World War I, led her to question the prevailing racial attitudes and gender roles of her native region. In 1920, Lewis began her storied career with the News and Observer. Inspired by H. L. Mencken's scathing criticism of the South, she soon established herself as the region's leading female liberal journalist. Her column, "Incidentally," attacked the Ku Klux Klan, lobbied against the exploitation of mill workers, defended strikers during the notorious communist-organized Gastonia labor violence, mocked religious fundamentalists who fought the teaching of evolution, and decried lynch law. A suffragist and a feminist who saw women's rights as inextricably linked to human rights, Lewis ran for state legislature in 1928 and was one of the first women in North Carolina to be admitted to the bar. In the 1930s, however, Lewis faced repeated institutionalizations for a debilitating bout of mental illness and sought treatment from Christian Science practitioners, spiritualists, and psychotherapists. As she aged, her views grew increasingly reactionary, and she insisted that she had served as a communist dupe during the Gastonia strike and trials, that communists had infiltrated the University of North Carolina, and that many of her former progressive allies had ties to communism. Finally, many of her opinions completely reversed, and in the wake of the 1954 Brown v. Board decision, she served as an influential spokesperson for the South's massive resistance to public school desegregation. She continued to espouse these conservative beliefs until her death in 1956. In his detailed retelling of Lewis's fascinating life, Leidholdt chronicles the turbulent history of North Carolina from the 1920s through the 1950s, as industrialization and racial integration began to tear at the region's conservative fabric. He vividly explains the background and ramifications of Lewis's many controversial stances and explores the possible reasons for her ideological about-face. Through the extraordinary story of "Battling Nell," Leidholdt reveals how the complex issues of gender, labor, and race intertwined to influence the convulsive events that shaped the course of early twentieth-century southern history.

Download or read book Encountering Mary written by Sandra L. Zimdars-Swartz and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past two centuries hundreds of apparitions of the Virgin Mary have been reported, drawing crowds to the seers and the sites and constituting events of great religious significance for millions of people worldwide. Here Sandra Zimdars-Swartz provides a detective-like investigation of the experiences and interpretations of six major apparitions, including those at La Salette and Lourdes in France during the mid-nineteenth century; at Fatima, Portugal, in 1917; and the more recent ones at San Damiano, Italy; Garabandal, Spain; and Medjugorje, Yugoslavia, where the apparitions continue. Adopting a phenomenological approach to these "encounters with Mary"--one that is neither apologetic nor antagonistic--the author explores the tension between the personal meaning of the events for their subjects and the public appropriation of this meaning by a larger religious community. Along the way she examines the backgrounds of the seers, their willingness or reluctance to talk about the apparitions and their messages, the amount of emotional support they received from family and community as news of the apparitions spread, the reports of miracles at apparition sites, the reactions of local authorities, and the steps taken by the Roman Catholic Church in officially recognizing or rejecting the apparitions as worthy of belief. The author concludes with a survey of religious worldviews based on Marian apparitions, focusing especially on the now-popular transcultural apocalyptic nature of these messages to the modern world. Originally published in 1991. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.

Book Auguste Comte  Volume 3

Download or read book Auguste Comte Volume 3 written by Mary Pickering and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-14 with total page 689 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume continues to explore the life and works of Auguste Comte during his so-called second career. It covers the period from the coup d'état of Louis Napoleon in late 1851 to Comte's death in 1857. During these early years of the Second Empire, Comte became increasingly conservative and anxious to control his disciples. This study offers the first study of the tensions within his movement. Focusing on his second masterpiece, the Système de politique positive, and other important books, such as the Synthèse subjective, Mary Pickering not only sheds light on Comte's intellectual development but also traces the dissemination of positivism and the Religion of Humanity throughout many parts of the world.
